Hi,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I am trying to draw a structure like this as an SWG width as W and a in the middle. May i know how to do this with a custom structure as a lumerical script.How do i describe this in the code? Is it possible to get a  sample code for this arrangement?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Minu<\/p>\n

start = 0e-06;<\/p>\n

mm = N*period;<\/p>\n

 for(i = 1:N)<\/p>\n

{<\/p>\n

stop = start + period;<\/p>\n

 edge = stop – dc*period;<\/p>\n

addlen = (W_2-factor*W_2)\/N;<\/p>\n

addrect;<\/p>\n

set(‘name’,’seg_mm’+num2str(i));<\/p>\n

set(‘x max’,stop);<\/p>\n

 set(‘x min’,edge);<\/p>\n

set(‘y’,0);<\/p>\n

set(‘y span’,factor*W_2+addlen*i);<\/p>\n

set(‘z’,0);<\/p>\n

set(‘z span’,T);<\/p>\n

set(‘material’,coremat);<\/p>\n

addtogroup(‘mm’);<\/p>\n

start = stop;<\/p>\n

}<\/p>\n

I have this code but needs to be arranged in parabolic shape as shown above. How can i modify this<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-367953","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-3DFDTD-1","topic-tag-FDTDgeometry-1","topic-tag-geometry","topic-tag-lumerical","topic-tag-script","topic-tag-simulation"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["3441","50911"],"_bbp_author_ip":["184.24.96.207"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["284"],"_bbp_topic_status":["answered"],"_edit_lock":["1716335017:142852"],"_bbp_topic_id":["367953"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27833"],"_bbp_engagement":["50911"],"_bbp_voice_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["368202"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["368202"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-05-23 06:39:10"]},"test":"minusunnycmail-carleton-ca"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/367953","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/367953\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":367970,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/367953\/revisions\/367970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367953"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
